TEN THOUSAND? And I thought I was bad, I have a couple hundred.

You have to set aside a block of time to go through them and categorize them and be honest: I have one lifetime. Will I ever really use this?

There is a threshhold on diversification of your focus, beyond which you will ruin any chance you ever had of accomplishing anything.

I'm at 11,688 bookmarks now ಠ_ಠ. I'm certain that many of them could be deleted, and periodically I'll scan through a section of the list and delete the ones that are obviously no longer of interest to me.

I started using a CLI bookmark manager called "buku" [0], storing the bookmarks database in a Dropbox folder to get multi-system sharing.

One nice feature is after running a search you get dropped into an interactive buku prompt where you can do further searches, open results in a browser, and edit entries.

My motivation for the switch was that I kept encountering issues (mostly performance) when using a high number of bookmarks maintained by the browser. And then there's the hassle of moving all of those bookmarks if I switch browsers again. It has been a positive experience overall.

I have 13k over 10 years.

Edit: not proud of it.
